Thanks for that explanation. I hope we get to talk at length about the subject when all these tense energies blow over.

I see battle lines drawn. Excommunications seem like they are coming. I pray the heretics do not get burned at the stake.

Now, off to San Francisco for the Black and White Ball, and the Aids lifeCycle trip from San Francisco to Burbank. Somehow, I hope camping along the Big Sur with wildly-dressed cyclists will clear out the sadness I feel is stuck inside me because of the fights occurring between my Aiki brothers and
sisters.
